Sam this is blowing my mind, I KNOW THIS GUY. I've literally known him since I started following you on LIVEJOURNAL. (so like, 04,05) He's a cool dude.

Well he plays a mean banjolele for sure!

Sometimes it is the little things that can make you feel better. Things as simple as a phone call or I love you, or how was your day can help turn your mood around. 

And then as a side note, the pop song is actually referencing a quote by Elie Wiesel, the author of Night.

Exactly what I’m saying- Love and hate both involve some measure of it and to be entirely opposite of a strong, involved feeling like love, you’d have to not care at all.

Like, you're right, but I still think that's still a tiny bit of gymnastics, semantically, which is why I like to pick on this one specific line from a feel-good pop song. 

Because love and indifference ARE diametrically opposed, like you said, but I dunno if you could say they're on the same binary, like love and hate are. 

I’d actually say that makes sense- most would say the opposite of love is hate but if you want to go diametrically opposite, indifference is more accurate because when you hate, there is still care given, though negative. Indifference is a total lack

There's not much in the events schedule that interests me, apart from Fables, Female Creators, and the Hobbit Q&A panel with Aiden Turner and Dean O'Gorman. I also understand that everything had to be cancelled and moved because of the Boston bombings in the spring, so this con might not offer as much as it could.
